Empowering your success

 

Diversity of thought and an inclusive culture spark innovation and ignite growth. That’s why the recruitment and advancement of women into senior roles is a key priority for us at RBC Dominion Securities. We’re proud of the progress we’ve made toward representation at all levels, and we’re motivated by what’s still to come. Here are just a few shining examples of what women can achieve in wealth.

Yvonne's Path

As a young immigrant to Canada, Yvonne learned that saving and smart investing would give her freedom. As an investment advisor with RBC Dominion Securities, she shares these same values with her clients and their families.

Violet’s path

Intrigued by the prospect of wealth management, Violet sought out a branch manager who helped her to understand the importance of having more women in investment advisor roles. Now, she provides guidance to her clients on everything from investing to entrepreneurship.

Elyse’s path

As an aerospace engineer, Elyse found great success in her field, but also knew she needed a change. Now, Elyse engineers strategic portfolios for her clients while enjoying her career as an investment advisor.

Kathi’s path

Fostering prosperous relationships with her clients fuels Kathi’s fire to succeed as an investment advisor. After working in banking at Royal Trust and other financial institutions, Kathi joined RBC Dominion Securities and found her fit.
